How did you feel sleeping on it? And also what's the potential return policy on it in comparison to competitors? I'm looking for a new bed myself as mine is starting to make the carpeted floor more appealing..

[@thenumberquelve158]

I'll be honest, I tune out sponsorships as much as the next guy, but I moved to Ohio eight months ago and I've been sleeping on just a twin XL mattress on the floor the whole time. It's about time I upgrade to a queen bed, so this sponsorship was a real breath of fresh air to me!

Hey @KTO can you make a video on the kid at my school he is a sophmore qb that is a 4 star recruit and commuted to Oklahoma his name is Kevin Sperry

[@anthonydean7508]

My highschool teammate Jo'Lonn Dunbar was in this class, had a very stellar college career at BC, went undrafted in '08, made the saints team, had a killer block for Reggie Bush on a punt return that was SC top 10, won a Superbowl and lasted 8 seasons for the saints and rams. I wonder where he was ranked this year. Shout out to my boy though, made Syracuse NY proud

[@nicholasalexander9866]

As a Saints fan, Dunbar!!

[@evanmaunders5688]

Rivals says he was a high 3 star. No national rank, but recruited by UM and OSU so he wasn’t a scrub

Shout out to your buddy mate. I've had a couple family members make it to the league, one being cut in preseason and never getting back. It's so difficult to stay in the league, especially when your calls dry up. So real respect to him.

One of my favorite things is how you introduce each name so dramatically, and when you introduce guys like Greg Olsen, it sounds cold and badass, but then with other guys I'm just like "who the heck is Kyle Wright?" Lol

Reggie honestly had a decent nfl career tbh. Especially when you include his receiving stats.

[@ArkelChatman45]

[@seth131]

@@ArkelChatman45 straight up! If Reggie got drafted this year, he would be the top fantasy rb and top 5 in the League.

[@egoleo6693]

He should’ve been on a different team. The Saints were very much a pass offense with Drew Brees

[@MrScotty2Hotty28]

Yeah he had over 10000 career all purpose yards and 58 career touchdowns. He was no scrub whatsoever. People expected him to be Emmitt Smith but in reality there's much more than that that goes into NFL success: scheme, training, injuries, etc. If Reggie had been drafted by the Vikings, I have no doubt he'd be almost as successful as AD bc he's have been in a run-first offense

[@dre3425]

Reggie was 15 years too early.

Facts

[@washedupwarvet2027]

A buddy in my platoon in the Marine Corp went to high school with Reggie Bush, he said he was such a good dude and obviously unreal on the football field. He said everyone knew he was going to be in the NFL. RB at USC was something else and i agree we have never seen a player like him since in college ball.

[@dpx5000]

I know this is a football channel, but this was also a legendary basketball year. 2003 NBA Draft had LeBron, Carmelo Anthony, Dwayne Wade, Chris Bosh, and some others I don’t remember off the top of my head

[@tayk4784]

Man anytime I see Patrick Willis I just get hyped and sad at the same time cuz I miss seeing that absolute monster play on Sunday's

[@Gungho73]

Even if he didn't live up to the hype, Reggie Bush having 10k all purpose is nothing to sneeze at. I'm glad he got those years in Miami and Detroit though to prove he could be a bellcow back. Because of those years, we never questioned if he could do it. Only unfortunately, why he couldn't do it more. Or why he didn't do enough. But most players would dream to have the career he had, let alone the fan fare he entered the league with. The bat moment in the playoffs with the Saints is one of the best pre game playoff moments of the last 20 years as a non Saints fan. When he was told to inform they were bringing the wood to that game, it was like wow okay these aren't your same Sorry ol' Saints.

Angelo State is in San Angelo. WHOLE different can of worm to San Antonio. I went to ASU 08-09. Only big time recruit I knew that went there was Jeremy Calhoun.

[@jamesgordon7040]

Yeah he’s only considered a bust because the expectation was for him to end up being a top 5 Running Back of all time. Anything less than being the next Barry Sanders and people would’ve called him a bust. But objectively, he had a very solid career. Had a few 1,000 yard seasons, consistently could catch the ball out of the backfield. He was a very solid 3 down back from like 2006-2012. I feel like his career is very underrated man, it’s sad.

Good for Tony Hills, at least managing to serve a purpose for NFL teams for as long as he did considering all he went through. And I didn't realize Greg Olsen had such a slow start coming out of high school. Clearly he kept working hard despite the limiting reps in college. Boy, those mid-aughts USC teams were STACKED. Safe to say Pete Carroll knew (and still does know) talent when he sees it and plays the cards correctly more often than not.
